“Candyman” is not a reboot or remake. It is a clever and well made sequel to the classic 1992 horror film and easily one of the best horror films of the last couple years. The Universal Pictures 4K UHD looks and sounds amazing.
“Carlito’s Way” is one of the best films from virtuoso filmmaker Brian De Palma. Pacino and Sean Penn are both fantastic in the film, and the final sequence is one of the best that De Palma put to celluloid. The Universal Pictures UHD is an excellent presentation of the film.
“The Shawshank Redemption” is one of the best films of all time and is the best prison drama ever made. Warner Bros. has given the film a new 4K UHD release that brings out the very best from Roger Deakins’ cinematography.
“Scream” was a generation defining horror film when it was released in 1996. Wes Craven reminded everyone that he was a master at generating suspense. The script by Kevin Williamson still feels fresh twenty five years later. The new Paramount 4K UHD is a big improvement over all prior releases.
“A Clockwork Orange” is a masterpiece. Fifty years after its initial release, none of the film’s power has been diminished. The Warner Bros. 4K UHD release earns our highest recommendation.
“G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” has not aged particularly well, but still will appeal to young kids. Paramount has given the film a 4K UHD release in conjunction with the release of “Snake Eyes.”
“Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade” is a perfect finale to an exceptional trilogy. Sean Connery is an amazing addition to the cast, and the script by Jeffrey Boam is wonderful. The new 4K UHD by Paramount is exceptional in every regard.
“Mortal Kombat” is an entertaining and uneven film that at times lives up to its promise and at times misses the mark. The 4K UHD from Warner Bros. looks and sounds great.
“Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” is the most underrated film in the series. While it divided critics and audiences, it has stood the test of time. The 4K UHD is a big leap forward.
